The changes of blood lipids and serum IGF-2 before and after treatment were observed.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>ZTK could significantly reduce blood lipids and increase serum content of IGF-2.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>ZTK could improve the insulin resistant status and inhibit the development of hyperlipidemia in patients by means of raising serum content of IGF-2 and suppressing vascular endothelial cell apoptosis.</p>
